Can't see my pop up form

Hi all,

I tried searching, but didn't find anything to help, so here goes...
Access 2003.
I have a form for data entry. I also have a button on this form to pop up
another form to add in new values. When I click the button, I am unable to
click on anything (just get the annoying bing), and the form never show's up.
The only way I have been able to get out of it is to "Shift - Tab" then hit
enter (so I know the fom loaded and has focus - as this causes the Cancel
button to be clicked). When I do this, focus comes back to my main form. I
am testing out an MDE, so I couldn't change it to design view, but instead I
opened up the MDB and opened the culprit form in design view. The form
loaded way off screen to the right. So I guess that I just can't see the
form when it's open, but how do I fix this?

Thanks for any advice,

Corey

I did change the setting for auto center to yes in my MDB, and of course the
issue goes away. But is this always the case? Do I always have to have any
pop up forms auto center?

Thanks,

Corey
